A Melbourne teen has died in Thailand after drinking a suspected methanol-laced cocktail in Laos.

Bianca Jones is the fourth person to die associated with the poisoning, along with one American and two Danish tourists.

Her friend is still critically ill.

Australian correspondent Murray Olds says reports claim the liquor bottles may have been topped up with methanol as a cost-saving measure.
